It's Here!

And the kit will be in December.

Made for their 50th Anniversary
 from Clover Meadow fabric line
by Jan Patek for Moda.

This is a large quilt so we are offering a few different 
ways to purchase the kit.  
At the moment we are taking preorders and 
shipment will begin in December.

You can buy the kit outright for $290.00 
by clicking here
or
you can make 4 payments of $72.50 each
by clicking here
we'll ship the quilt in segments or all
at once after the last payment 
if it comes that way from Moda.
I do hope that made sense.
If you have any questions you can email 
Tammie at janpatekquiltsinc@gmail.com
and she should be able to answer them.


And on a totally different set of purple quilts,
someone on Instagram wanted to see
a picture of my couch with it's quilt and pillows
so here is "Home Sweet Log Cabin Home"
with the Purple House Pillow and the 
Scarecrow Pillow - also part of "America For Me".


And here is the leather-bound journal
Pep gave me for our 50th Anniversary.

"I do believe it's time
for another Adventure."  :)

He's a Keeper.

October - Pumpkins & leaves & Anniversaries

Here's my scarecrow pillow 
from the Moda "I Can Make That"
Blog Hop.
The fabrics are a combination of
my Sweet Violet fabric line


and Betsy Chutchian's "Sarah's Story" line.
I thought they went together in a most
pleasing manner :)

To purchase a kit to make the pillow top
you need to click here.

Our vintage book (or books in this case)
for October is both books of
Pinecones & Hollyberries by
me & Sue Spargo.


Here's a picture of the quilts on
the back cover of book #1.
The Urn Tabletopper is 20" x 43'
 and the House quilt is 54" x 54".

It's never too early to start on Christmas stockings
and presents so next week I'll show you
some of the stockings you can make with
patterns from this book. 


Meanwhile, it's sunny and warm with only a 
slight wind - perfect weather for sitting
on my front porch


or up by the garden
and stitching.
My 50th Anniversary is Friday
and I'm still working on the quilt top.  :)

Have a good week ladies

The winner of the last drawing

Was #5

Julie Rose said
  1. Love that Angel table topper--just perfect for the holiday season....hugs, Julierose



    And since there were 2 quilts I decided to do another drawing.

    I kind of skewed the results by taking out all the entries that said they
    wanted the Tablerunner and the entries by Daniel from
    Microsoft that were really ads for Microsoft and ran the new numbers.

    The winner of the long cabin pattern is Anna who said

    Oh my gosh . . .what a great idea for a log cabin. . .the angel tablerunner is cute too, but the log cabin would be my choice.


    OK ladies, if you will email Tammie at janpatekquiltsinc@gmail
    and tell her which patterns you won, she'll mail you your patterns.

    It's been a really fun Hop and I hope you all got lots of ideas for quilts to make.

    Right now I'm working on my 50th Anniversary quilt and a 
    Purple House Pillow to go with my purple quilts.

    Check back Wednesday for the jpgs of the House pillow and the scarecrow pillow.

    Right now I have to go let the chickens out.  

    Everyone here was up late watching the Chief's game.  
    We lost :(  But I guess even with Mahomes we can't win them all.

Day #9

Over The River BOM


Quilt designed by me
Fabric - Sarah's Story by Betsy Chutchian.

This is one of my husband' favorite quilts.
I don't think I've ever designed a quilt he
didn't like but every once in awhile there 
is one that he loves.

It has all of our favorite elements
Home, nature, God (besides the obvious 
church & angels, there are lots of stars and moons,
which in my quilts stand for the celestial), 
and of course
kids and grandkids.

Make a comment, any old comment,
and I'll have the Random Number Generator 
pick a winner which I'll announce tomorrow.

The winner to the Beeskep and Violets 
quilt kit is Lantha who said
"we need our bees!.  The jobs they do and 
the products they produce are vital to our lives.
Pollination, honey, beeswax, not to mention VIOLETS!

Lantha, please email Tammy at 
janpatekquiltsinc@gmail.com and tell her you
won the Beeskep & Violets kit and she'll 
mail it out to you.

Now lets get hopping over to see what 
Kathy Schmitz has for us by clicking here.

Day 8 - Hump Day this week

We're back to Sweet Violet
and this is

Beeskep and Violets
36" x 36"


And I'm going to do this a little
differently this time.

Usually I stay away from asking for 
anything controversial in my comment
but please make a comment about why we need
to make sure our future
includes bees so that we can also have violets.

And because I think bees are so important
I'll have a drawing for a kit for the
Beeskep & Violets wallhanging.

Of course I'll have the Random Number
Generator pick the winner to announce on
Thursday.

Good luck ladies.

Meantime, lets hop on over to see what
American Jane has for us by clicking here.
